"Opa!" unites musicians from different parts of the huge area of the former USSR, who once met in Saint Petersburg, multicultural capital of Russia. Their music expresses freedom and euphoria of post-soviet spirit and ancient enigma of Russian Soul. Openhearted shows, multilingual lyrics of "Opa!" and their willingness to give it all to the audience make this wild positive folk remarkable and understandable for everybody.

Some songs composed by Evgeny Lizin, russian drummer and cultural activist.
Recorded by Oleg Volkov, Dobrolet Studio.
